Hi Carlos,

Thanks for the response. The plot you suggested was not in line with what
I'm trying to produce in R.  The last plot found at:

http://www.advsofteng.com/gallery_contour.html

is more along the lines of what I'm looking for. Notice the scatter points
(shown by "x") are not laid out in a regular/gridded fashion, yet the
plotting software was still able to use some kind of interpolation and plot contours. All the contouring options I'm finding in R require the spatial locations of data points to be in a 'regular' grid. That is, data in each row must have the same y coordinate and data in each column must have the same x coordinate. I'm seeking flexibility in the location of the points on
which the contours are based.

See if this SO answer satisfies the problem requirements:
